Practice, progress and future directions for physical therapies in Huntingtons disease.
Physical therapies and exercise may have potential as a disease modifying agent in Huntington's disease (HD) and in recent years, there have been several small scale feasibility studies that have shown benefit as a result of physical interventions. When evaluating complex physical interventions, a phased approach using mixed methodology designs that report specific intervention components, adhe...
متن کاملRecent Progress and Future Directions
We review the foundations of Einstein’s general theory of relativity, discuss recent progress in the tests of relativistic gravity, and present motivations for new generation of high-accuracy gravitational experiments. We discuss the advances in our understanding of fundamental physics anticipated in the near future and evaluate discovery potential of the recently proposed gravitational experim...
متن کاملPhysical Activity and Cardiovascular Disease: Directions for Future Research
Regular physical activity is widely accepted as playing a crucial role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention. However, despite extensive research in this field there are crucial gaps in our knowledge. This paper discusses future research directions including population subgroup-specific exercise doses, research in under represented populations, the role of cardiorespiratory fitness in pred...
متن کاملDevice Therapies: New Indications and Future Directions
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICDs), cardiac resynchronization (CRT) and combination (CRT-D) therapy have become an integral part of the management of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). ICDs treat ventricular arrhythmia and CRTs improve left ventricular systolic function by resynchronizing ventricular contraction. Device therapies (ICD, CRT-D), have be...
متن کاملRegenerative medicine: Current therapies and future directions.
Organ and tissue loss through disease and injury motivate the development of therapies that can regenerate tissues and decrease reliance on transplantations. Regenerative medicine, an interdisciplinary field that applies engineering and life science principles to promote regeneration, can potentially restore diseased and injured tissues and whole organs. Since the inception of the field several...
